There are multiple advancements that have been presented in prior art. However, these solutions are limited and restricted to their conventional systems. Most of the prior art shows the advancements in this field where hair straightening devices are disclosed. Furthermore, as per more advanced research at prior art and market study most of the hair curling devices available are to develop curls in hair. However, the users who want to have wavy look have no such consistent and reliable tool available. Individuals with thick textured hair, when the hair is cut short, will continuously brush their hair with a handheld brush to create a wavy pattern in their hair that is commonly referred to as “waves.”

Currently, the wavy pattern commonly referred to as “waves” is accomplished by a constant, sometimes all day, brushing of one's hair in a belief that the more one brushes their hair, the more defined the wavy pattern will become.

This wavy type pattern is achieved by a constant brushing of one's hair by a medium to short length bristle brush similar to the brush in U.S. Pat. No. 525,514 to Cosby (1951).

When using the brush to manually brush their hair, it can take hours of brushing every day to achieve the desired results. The constant brushing of one's head takes away time from other tasks a person could be accomplishing, or activities they could be participating in. Constant brushing even leads to arm fatigue. In order to brush your hair at all times, you have to carry around a large heavy brush everywhere you go which can be inconvenient with all the other possessions a person has to carry around.

So, these brushes are an antiqued method to accomplish the wavy pattern commonly referred to as “waves”. As a result of intensive studies on the above problems, the present inventor has found that the prior problems can be solved by a novel method which provides an electric brush that uses a motor which is connected to a set of gear that is attached to a hair bristle to achieve the wavy effect.

None of the previous inventions and patents, taken either singly or in combination, is seen to describe the instant invention as claimed. Hence, the inventor of the present invention proposes to resolve and surmount existent technical difficulties to eliminate the aforementioned shortcomings of prior art.
